This message is to remind you that a repair procedure is available, in order
that vehicles can be repaired first, then sold (SI B12 43 15 attached).
The Delivery Stop that was issued on F30 (3 Series Sedan) vehicles equipped
with the B58 Engine (6 cylinder) produced from July 1, 2015 to November 2015
was updated to a Service Action on November 14, 2015. The vehicle can be sold
after the Service Action repair procedure has been completed.
Please be reminded that it is a violation of Federal law for you to sell, lease or
deliver any vehicle covered by this notification until the delivery stop repair has
been performed. This means that centers may not legally deliver new motor
vehicles to a consumer until it is fixed or use/sell replacement equipment/parts
subject to a delivery stop. Note also that substantial civil penalties apply to
violations of this law.
Also, you should not sell, lease or deliver any Certified Pre-Owned or used
vehicles subject to a delivery stop until the repair is completed.
Sincerely, Eugene Aton, Technical Service

7 Series Product Update: Bowers & Wilkins USB
With every purchase of an all-new BMW 7 Series equipped with the Bowers &
Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System, the customer receives a Bowers &
Wilkins USB in the glove compartment containing 12 carefully chosen tracks
which optimize the listening experience in the car.
Unfortunately, there is a small failure rate with the USB sticks that were prepackaged into vehicles produced before September 17th, and as a result, some
customers may find themselves with a blank USB stick.
In order to rectify the situation, Bowers & Wilkins is sending each customer with
the Diamond Surround Sound System a package containing a new USB Stick and
a letter explaining the situation.
Upon notification of a blank USB stick before the packages reach the customers,
please visit the Marketing Central page through CenterNet to download the
content and brochure for its immediate release to the customer, located
here: https://www.bmwmarketingcentral.com > View Latest Uploads > Bowers &
Wilkins USB Content. The files can be loaded directly onto the blank USB stick
already available in the customer’s vehicle.
We apologize for any inconvenience and hope this helps resolve any issues.
